There are certain times in your life that you just need comfort and the warmth of home. Time to head back to Mom’s cookbook for some homey baking to soothe the Trump traumatized soul. I’ve written about the wonderful cookbook Mom made for us previously here.

Shortbread

1 cup butter

1/2 cup cornstarch

1/2 cup icing sugar

1/2 tsp salt

2 cups flour

Preheat oven to 325. Beat butter until creamy. Sift dry ingredients four times. Add to butter a little at a time. Work in with a spoon as long as possible. Turn out and knead until it cracks. Bake for 15 minutes. Make sure they don’t brown or overcook.
